Words fail me to describe how much I hate this game. The controls are horrendous. Whose idea was it not to include some sort of a locking mechanism when attacking enemies?! It's irritating having realign the camera after I attack a target and inexplicably end up 180* the wrong way! It makes matters worst when I'm surrounded by 4 guys but I still end up facing a spot where there's nobody there.

Also why is it after a combo, the controls will littlerally freeze you out and take over the action for you or even worse, stop all together, leaving you open to attacks from every corner (except fronbt because there's no one there.)

Trip- urgh! Don't get me started on this inconsiderate and ungratefully selfish child!yes I'm aware the whole point of the game is she makes Monkey her bitch slave but the least she can do if show a little gratitude for saving her life for the umpteenth time or learn some fucking manners! Also she did kind of ruin the party for everyone at the end but we'll move on because my main gripe with her is. The moment enemies arrive instead of doing the smart thing and gtfo, she curls into a ball and and just sits there even though there are mechs literally right on top of her.

Speaking of mechs, exactly how many times do I have to hit these fuckers for them to die?! Shitty camera aside, stupid ally AI, crappy hit detectionm, I still have to contended with enemies with infinite lives and infinite in numbers, why oh why do they keep coming- more to the point where the fuck do they keep coming from? It's like the game just spawns them for the lulz, I didn't find it funny when the game litterally spawned an enemy on the exact spot I was standing on- that was NOT cool!

I have other compliants, compliants that should have stopped me playing ages ago but I was told the ending was really good...I like good stories and good endings, in summary; the ending was not worth the effort.  If anything it just made me hate the characters more, Trip especially so.

In summary: Trip needs to die!

Solid game, but I didn't love it either.

Wow did I play the same game as you? played on hard the first time through and didn't have too many moments where I had much trouble.

Anyway my problems were more in line with glitched tech orbs (so I couldn't get them all) and another trophy that glitched on me so I gave up on the platinum for the game.

In defence of the game, I seem to be the only one experiencing these issues but still- why the hell do I end up facing the wrong way and why do I randomly lose control of my character at random moments ¬_¬.

Glitched game? Controller problems? Monkey hates you?

Maybe I got a faulty copy from Lovefilm but these experiences did happen and killed what was an enjoyable experience.

So much so I'm not gonna go for the Platinum because I can't force myself to play anymore.

I've just bought this game. I liked the demo so will give it a chance.

yeah same boat on not getting the plat but for me was the other smaller glitches (although big enough to make the plat impossible)

I can't find a better point of irony....

I am playing the game (literally as I type) and I couldn't disagree more. Rarely do I have this much fun with any adventure game.....rarely! The graphics could use a little polish (although they do look good) as could some of the lip-sync. However, the world is alive, the characters are interesting (albeit - Monkey could use a little more character development), and the game is satisfying in length.

Besides Tomb Raider Legend, I haven't had this much fun with an adventure game all gen. The Uncharted games are close, but don't quite eclipse the amount of fun I've had with Enslaved.

Agreed on everything Enslaved is phenominal I don't understand how people could hate on this game at all.  The voice acting alone is incredible.



I just bought this game the other day and I do agree with some of your complaints. I despise trip with a passion and detest the lack of a lock on system. The foes in this game are dull and I dread any time I have to fight more than one. I was hoping Monkey would kill the girl I guess that's a no from your exclaim about Trip. I am trudging through this game hoping to find a redeeming quality.
